Here's the 2LT:

Front side airbag with occupant sensors; Wireless connection Bluetooth; Load restraint net; Cargo area cover/rear parcel shelf; Leather seat upholstery with additional vinyl; Sports electrically adjustable driver seat with height adjustment, lumbar adjustment, four adjustments and tilt adjustment, sports electrically adjustable passenger seat with height adjustment, lumbar adjustment, three adjustments and tilt adjustment.

Here's the 3LT:

Dashboard with head-up display; Memorized adjustment with two settings on door mirror position and steering wheel position with three driver's seat positions; Heated driver and passenger seat; Electrically adjustable multi-function steering wheel with telescopic adjustment; Garage door opener; Coming home device; Audio system with Disc Autochanger and six-disc remote changer; Disc autochanger dashboard, 6 and CD; Seven upgraded speaker(s) Bose; Includes: [2LT] Corvette Equipment Group
the VIN decoder list that i used was only for 2009 and up...from what i understand, to make sure C6Zs were authentic and all??? so my 2008 wouldn't have the 5th digit code in the VIN...with that being said...except for the Bluetooth that was added in 2009, its gonna be a 3LT...did i mention that it also has the 6-speed paddle shifters? AND it has the stitched leather around the console though...ho hum...i still think its nice though overall...

FYI, it's not leather; it's VINYL, even on true 4LTs . The only real differentiation from a 3LT to a 4LT is the leather dash and upper doors. Quite pricey for $3,500.00. I bought the new GS CE that way because I couldn't stand the cheap perforated leather and ugly dash plastic, but it hurt like hell paying for that because it's not worth it. Even Porsche charges less for more coverage (they do include the center console)... and better leather.

Bottom line is your car might be a good deal, but not a great one anymore. Good luck.

3LT or 4LT? Not sure why you're looking at the VIN number...

Look at the sticker in the glovebox. It lists the features & option codes.
